King-size men's clothing

Can't Post |
Several of you have mentioned the difficulty in finding clothing for men of generous proportions in Mexico. Yesterday's Reforma had an article mentioning http://www.gorditos.com.mx

Thanks for the link. Too bad they don't have much of a selection. And their prices are sky high. I guess I'll have to sick with buying from King Size when I go north to visit.

For those of you living in or near Guadalajara, there is a king size clothing store downtown near the Libertad Market where Bubba has found big guys' stuff. It is great fun to go there because, apparently there are some really, really large people out there and Big Bubba takes great pleasure in looking at clothes that are way too big for him. They are not expensive but it ain't designer heaven. I buy mostly underwear there. Their front display window is great fun. They have some shoes and underwear on display that are knock down funny they are so big. Sorry I don't remember the name of the store but you can find it if you go to centro and ask around.

I imagine that they will gradually start stocking larger sizes at least the "tall"
stuff. When we were at Tonala, I was amazed to see how many really tall young men there were, and they weren't gringos. My husband is five eleven and these guys towered over him. They definitely fit the "tall, dark and handsome" description..

Better diet for this generation maybe?

Thanks. I'll be there 2 weeks from tomorrow. Most of me is fairly normal, but I'll see if they have anything for my big head and feet.
